Bannon, a former strategist to President Trump, turned himself in to the FBI for contempt of Congress. Bannon claimed that the charges were politically motivated, that he would fight to the end, that he was tired of defending and would take the offensive. When he introduced the website "War Room", he said: "I hope you will continue to pay attention to the news that we are about to overthrow the Biden regime."

Bannon once advocated "revolution at the bottom", calling for the overthrow of the establishment elites, bureaucrats and media in the United States and the overthrow of the entire system. Bannon is considered a racist, anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim. In Bannon's racist eyes, people of color are all illegal immigrants. Bannon once said in an interview that Indians and Chinese are all in Silicon Valley executive. He believes that this undermines the civil society of white people. The New York Times intervened in a "conspiracy theory" involving Chinese circles in the United States in November 2020, pointing out that after Yan Limeng, a former researcher at the University of Hong Kong School of Medicine, secretly left Hong Kong, he actively spoke out in the United States, accusing China The deliberate creation and dissemination of the new crown virus was at the mercy of Bannon and Guo Wengui, a wealthy Chinese businessman who was exiled to the United States, to promote the conspiracy theory of the new crown pneumonia, which eventually led to the occurrence of Asians being discriminated against and subjected to violence. Bannon is precisely the two types of people who have been abandoned by globalization and the racist right wing of the urban middle class, and won the voters, and finally successfully helped Trump to become the President of the United States during the 2016 election.

Since Biden took office, his approval rating has continued to decline. According to a recent national poll released by Grinnell College, the current approval ratings of Trump and Biden are basically the same. Will run for the 2024 U.S. presidential election, and with the 2022 midterm elections approaching, Trump will begin to attend campaign events. Although Bannon was previously kicked out of the White House by Trump, he had promised to "continue to fight with Trump from the outside" and to "add bricks and mortar to the global populist movement", and now Bannon is talking about overthrowing the Biden administration , suggesting that Trump will likely continue to work with Bannon. Because this set of populism applies to Bannon, who is known as the "number one trader" of American far-right populism in the current political game rules in the United States, or does he return to the old path of right-wing movements?
